Glymphatic System: a New Research Direction for the Pathogenesis of Brain Diseases [PDF]
Zhongguo quanke yixue, 2022 The glymphatic system is mainly mediated by aquaporin 4 on astrocytes and relies on the exchange and flow of cerebrospinal fluid and brain tissue fluid in the vascular space around arteries and veins.

Lymphatics in Lung Disease [PDF]
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2008 The lymphatic circulation appears to be a vital component in lung biology in health and in disease. Animal models have established the role of the lymphatic circulation in neoplastic and inflammatory diseases of the lung, such as asthma and cancer, and allowed for the understanding of the molecular controls of lymphangiogenesis in normal lung ...

Immunopathogenesis of lymphatic filarial disease [PDF]
Seminars in Immunopathology, 2012 Although two thirds of the 120 million people infected with lymph-dwelling filarial parasites have subclinical infections, ~40 million have lymphedema and/or other pathologic manifestations including hydroceles (and other forms of urogenital disease), episodic adenolymphangitis, tropical pulmonary eosinophilia, lymphedema, and (in its most severe form)

The value of cytologic diagnostics in fast intraoperative diagnosis of mediastinal lymphadenopathy and pulmonary and mediastinal tumors [PDF]
Vojnosanitetski Pregled, 2002 Extemporary (EXT) analysis is unavoidable in establishing the tumor diagnosis, operability and the extent of the operation. Alternative approach is cytologic analysis which, because of its simple methodology, provides results even faster.

Lymphatic vessels in health and disease [PDF]
WIREs Systems Biology and Medicine, 2012 AbstractThe lymphatic vasculature plays vital roles in tissue fluid balance, immune defense, metabolism, and cancer metastasis. In adults, lymphatic vessel formation and remodeling occur primarily during inflammation, development of the corpus luteum, wound healing, and tumor growth.

Gastrointestinal lymphatics in health and disease [PDF]
Pathophysiology, 2010 Lymphatics perform essential transport and immune regulatory functions to maintain homeostasis in the gastrointestinal (GI) system. Although blood and lymphatic vessels function as parallel and integrated systems, our understanding of lymphatic structure, regulation and functioning lags far behind that of the blood vascular system.

VEGF-C promotes the development of lymphatics in bone and bone loss
eLife, 2018 Patients with Gorham-Stout disease (GSD) have lymphatic vessels in their bones and their bones gradually disappear. Here, we report that mice that overexpress VEGF-C in bone exhibit a phenotype that resembles GSD.

The lymphatic vascular system in liver diseases: its role in ascites formation [PDF]
Clinical and Molecular Hepatology, 2013 The lymphatic system is part of the circulatory system and plays a key role in normal vascular function. Its failure plays a crucial role in the development and maintenance of various diseases including liver diseases.

The Lymphatic System in Kidney Disease
Kidney360, 2023 The high-capacity vessels of the lymphatic system drain extravasated fluid and macromolecules from nearly every part of the body. However, far from merely a passive conduit for fluid removal, the lymphatic system also plays a critical and active role in immune surveillance and immune response modulation through the presentation of fluid, macromolecules,
